Abstract

The author discusses why military escalation against Syria would not benefit Turkey. He talks about the deteriorating relations between the two countries, noting claims made by Turkish officials about the alleged support being given by Syria to the Kurdistan Workers' Party. He mentions that both the U.S. and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) have announced that they will not offer military assistance to Turkey. The need for the Turkish government to protect its border is emphasized.
